basically this is the sports equivalent of artists who don't get enough commercial acceptance or whatever.

im thinking these are teams that prolly wouldve won the chip had they gotten past the 3rd round but got beset by injuries or david stern or crooked refs or whatever

1991 blazers got f'in robbed

this could be a reach but I feel like the sixers teams in 02 and 03 are under appreciated despite bowing out in the 1st and 2nd playoff rounds respectively
could be my childhood idolization of iverson talking tho

02 kings are the undeniable champs of this thread tho

i would say the 05 suns were probably the best suns team imo

04 twolves maybe a sleeper here
― moz.gov (Clay), Sunday, 16 November 2014 03:50 (eleven years ago)
07 suns had a shot then kobe airballed a miracle to Artest.

07 mavs had mvp dirk and a 67-15 record and just couldn't get over the baron dubs. but i was all about the dubs in that series, so.

weirdest one i can think of is the 04-05 pacers in a counterfactual sitch where the brawl never happens

I remember the '99-'00 blazers as being excellent before they choked in game 7 of the conference finals against the lakers.

I was out of the country when the '99-'00 Blazers choked in game 7 against the Lakers. I never saw the game. I didn't even find out about it until a couple of weeks later. Hearing only the barest details from fans too dispirited to say more than a couple of sentences about it, I still think of this as the most epic choke I can recall in a lifetime of following the nba. Damn! It is still hard to believe!

those 80s mavs teams were special

soooo stacked http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/DAL/1987.html
― Matt Armstrong, Monday, 17 November 2014 00:38 (eleven years ago)
the answer is the Kings tho, uncrowned champs
― Matt Armstrong, Monday, 17 November 2014 00:40 (eleven years ago)
Wow that mavs team. That was the kinda stuff I was looking for. Outside of showtime and bird c's, 80s hoops are a big blindspot for me.

kings and suns def had easy championship quality teams, bad luck bad officiating bad suspensions bad injuries
